The repeal of the five-gallon liquor law
would probably please the temperance people
throughout the State. Under its provisions,
to-day, it does not matter how strictly the sale
of spirits is restricted or forbidden In
any town, liquor measuring moro than hve
gallons can always be sold without local
license. The selling is COMMONLY done by ped
lers, and the result is that, in good
many places in the northern coun-
ties, temperance laws or ordinances are
worthless Yesterday the Assembly agreed
to strike out the five gallon clause,
aud the Senate may do the same. But this is a
comparatively small matter and will be con-
sidered by no one with sensible temperance
notions as sufficient recompense tor the defeat

The new downtown rapid transit routes as

for they give to that corporation entire con-
troll d the whole lower part of the city. But
ii is not clear, since the new lines would pour
their passenger trains on to the old tracks at
no point further north than NiDth-st, how the
rush Of travel will be at all relieved or present
dangers diminished. Over and above all other
objections. however, looms up the fact that the
Commissioners practically give Battery Park
to tho company to build loops and other tracks
on about as it pleases The Commissioners
are Of the opinion that this route, No. 4, is
hardly positively forbidden by any lcgisla-
zion now on the statute books. If that is the
case, tho laws protecting our parks cannot be
amended too soon.

There are signs that the Aldermen Will PACK

certain electric hight companies. Inc mayor
has vetoed their resolution limiting competl-
ton in the bids and the majority in the Board
have dec,ded to reconsider the matter on Friday.
Since good many things do happen which
nobody believes can happen, it is possible that
this change of base is due to reflection on the
part of members of the combine " ard de-

at the severity of public condemn alton, have
told their representatives in the Board to
change their votes in the electric light

nomination. Practically the motives IN the case
really don't matter. All the public demands Is

the hallucinations peculiar to the effects
ascribed by the use Of cocaine appeared
in his case. From that ON and until Q
week ago the spells occurred fortnightly,
and were characterized by the most
distressing mental torture. Eminent med
ical skill was summoned, and, while there
was difference Of opinion, the majority
believe that the doctors malady results
from the cumulative effects Of the insid-
ious poison. The doctor had continued to
serve his patients between his spells until
early last week, when . prolonged period Of
suffering left him in state Of imbecility,
and during his rawlings and battling Of inn
